"Rain" means something other
If you're not from Arizona:
"Into every life..."*
(Twist you here the knife)
"A little rain must fall..."*
(Unmitigated gall).
At last God sent us rain
To ease this climate's pain
Elsewhere they have floods--
Nature's twisted torsades.**
Far moreso than the rain;
I want to see Your Face:
Lord, Jesus, come with haste.
---c.m.b. (c), 2020
(a summer of record breaking 110+ days in Phoenix; no rain; high ozone)
*A paraphrase from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem, "The Rainy Day" (see link below)
**Torsades: an irregular heart rhythm
